Inspection Procedure

  1. DRIVING TEST 
    1. Start the engine.
    2. Turn the ECT SNOW switch "OFF" (Normal drive mode).
    3. Confirm vehicle response by driving from a parked position to fully depressing the accelerator pedal.
    4. Turn the ECT SNOW switch "ON" and perform the same check as (c).

      Confirm that there is a difference between ECT SNOW switch "ON" and "OFF".

      • Driving test should be done on a paved road (a nonskid road).
      • Make sure not to use the TRAC system when testing a vehicle equipped with one.

        OK: 

        There is a difference in acceleration between "ON" and "OF". 

    1. NG: Go to step 2 
    2. OK: GO TO NEXT STEP.

    1. NG: REPLACE PATTERN SELECT SWITCH ASSY NO. 1 
    2. OK: Go to next step. 
  4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PATTERN SELECT SWITCH ASSY NO. 1 - MULTIPLEX NETWORK BODY ECU) 
    1. Connect the connector of pattern select switch.
    2. Disconnect the passenger side junction block assy (multiplex network body ECU) connector.
    3. Measure the resistance between terminal SNOW of passenger side junction block assy (multiplex network body ECU) and body ground.
